It is no secret that the Spy loves pop up stores of every kind. These short term wonders of gorilla commerce consistently offer patrons products that typically are never available on most American main streets, and that is particularly true for visual art.
That is why we were excited to hear that New York City-based artist, Ian Ghent, decided to showcase his work in St. Michaels using that format at the end of May. Ghent, a successful advertising creative director by day, uses oil and watercolor to capture the essence of urban life, with a particular emphasis on people and animals that evoke both insight and humor through his portrait work.
The Spy was able to connect with Ian via Skype the other day to talk about his work and methods.
Ian Ghent
314A Talbot Street
St. Michaels
May 25, 26, and 27 from 9:30 – 6:00
